Andy Reid needs the support of the fan base. Booing will not solve any problems. This organization only has its self to blame. No Super Bowl victories ever speaks for itself.

You not quitting OR being fired yet IS letting the fans down.

Dear Coach Reid, please explain why LeSean McCoy was playing at the end of a game that was completely out of reach to win? Your bs answer that you where trying to win dosent hold up. You already lost your star QB to a concussion and now its your fault your star RB suffered the same fate. Youd think a rational coach would be extra careful playing McCoy after what happened to Vick. You dont have a clue.

Yea ok sure randy just don’t show up on the Browns door step… we need someone fresh and new

He just needs to do a better job

Can I just point out that this headline is very misleading. It comes across as Coach Reid is putting the blame elsewhere and that isn’t the case at all.

Also, it has to be a very tough year for him with losing his son. However he did make the decision to keep coaching and not take the year off – I get that but it still has to be the toughest year of his coaching career.

Fire everybody after last game. Admit to the mistake of giving Roseman another 5 years and buy him out. Hire Bill Polian to clean up this mess.

the man is not a quitter like Gruden and Cowher and 7 million Eagle fans can want him fired but until LURIE wants him fired he’s the coach. if that doesn’t please you give up your tickets they will be re-sold in 20min. even with Reid the coach

I understand the concept of leading by example in “never quitting” and that giving up now would be a “cop-out” but C’mon Man! Andy, you’ve gotta take a step back and look at the big picture. 3-7 with 6 losses in a row is inexcusable. I’ve been frustrated in years past with Reid’s decision making (on many levels) but this year is a complete joke. Let it go. It’s like the Sopranos – It’s Over – find a new TV show (team) and move on.

OK boys … now let’s rally around the coaching staff. Get out there and give it your all.

I’m glad Howie Roseman is staying. No sense in throwing out the baby with the bathwater.

vicksprman says:Nov 19, 2012 1:05 PM

Nope they are letting themselves down, as fans we’ll get over this, but after the debacle this season has been some of these players and coaches will be looking for new careers.

Of course he won’t quit, he is still under a very high paying contract. He won’t quit and Lurie won’t fire him. Just blame the assistants and fire them. Good Luck next year Eagle fans.

His response, “We were trying to win the game.”

Don’t believe me, look it up….

Honestly, some people have the memory of a gnat. I’m sure more than one good decision led to Reid’s impressive 14 year run and multiple deep playoff runs. That stuff doesn’t happen by accident. And yeah, after the season he deserves to be fired. But don’t get it twisted – that doesn’t mean he’s sucked for 14 years or that he was never any good. Respect where it’s due.

Well, I am operating from the notion that Vick is not hurt. I believe the Eagles wanted to save face and caving to the fans pressure to play the backup. They got their wish and the team did not believe in the strategy and it showed up big in their lukewarm effort against the Skins. Yes, the same Skins team ranked 30th in passing defense. The Eagles have two of the most explosive receivers in the game, they answer by completing one catch for five yards between them. I guarantee you a concussed Vick would have performed better than that.

I feel for Reid as a person. He is a good guy and has had a really tough year. I think the Eagles should let him go so he can take some time off. He looks worn out to me and beaten down. I think Reid is an ok coach but 15 years of coaching is to much without a break. Take a break big guy then get back to coaching. The rest of the league has caught up to him. He needs to change the way he does things and stop being so predictable. Sometimes taking some time away from the game can help. Look at Dick Vermeil, he came back and won a superbowl after doing just that.

I wonder if coach R. has seen Bogart’s part in “The Caine Mutiny?” He is starting to remind me a little of him. If he brings out the three steel marbles and begins playing with them, we will know for sure!

He just needs to take his Wimpy looking self back out west..I am sure San Diego will hire him on the spot. Cannot believe that guys like Billick state that he is the best coach in the league. If he is right, then why Reid cannot seem to get out of this funk? Poor coaching decisions along with questionable draft picks equals that it’s time to take your ball and go home…PLEASE!
